Bhutan has adopted a unique tourism policy based on the principle of "High value, Low impact" and is intended to ensure sustainability - not just in financial terms, but more importantly in terms of environmental, ecological, social and cultural sustainability.

The biggest festivals in Bhutan are the annual religious celebrations known as 'Tshechu'. It is believed that the tradition of the Tsechu was introduced by the Buddhist master Guru Padmasambhava or Guru Rimpoche, who introduced Tantric Buddhism to Bhutan sometime in the eight century.
